Guest guest Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Thanks, Charlyne. is doing better, still nauseated and on IVs. Turns out he's obstructed from a fecal impaction, so enemas await, and he needs to gradually get so he can drink/eat without IV support to hydrate him. After leukemia, this seems like a very minor thing, and we are grateful that it's something we can fix fairly easily. He has had impactions before; this was just a more emergent reaction to it. Of course, isn't feeling great and will not love the enema, and obstructions are not something to mess with, so prayers for him are appreciated, but I feel good about his chances to be home for Halloween and for us to move past this with relative ease. Thanks for your kind thoughts and prayers. Beth Quoting charlyne olko : > HiBeth, > Praying for 's speedy recovery.

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 was released to home yesterday evening after his fecal impaction cleared. But he's still vomiting at home today and can only handle small sips of fluid. We pray he recovers enough to drink and eat and get better; otherwise he'll need to go back into the hospital for more IV hydration. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Beth, Hi I am happy for you that got to come home for Halloween. used to get this way before he starting eating gf/cf and doing supplements. Lots of antibiotics did this to . I am sure you know this to but a child can have diarrhea and still be constipated. With recently being dx myself with Diverticulitis I have educated myself on the bowels. Hope he is feeling better. It is miserable when you have tummy problems. used to come home everyday from school and scream for 2-3 hours inconsolably.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Oh Beth, I am sorry that he was so sick. What makes you think the rash is weird? Did the rash just come up or has it been there the whole time?Where is the rash? Is the phenergan helping with nausea? It is common when you get impacted to get so sick at your stomach that you vomit and most people do not realize that you can be constipated and have diarrhea. The diarrhea goes around the impaction. Been there done that. Cyndi B > > Thanks. Unfortunately, did not get to enjoy Halloween. He vomited off and on Friday and was sick and miserable; in bed with phenergan for nausea by 7:15. Saturday the vomiting was gone but diarrhea was wicked. Today both were better and he's eating, hooray, since he has lost SO much weight, but he's still nauseated off and on and has a weird rash and lethargy. Probably back to the dr. tomorrow. > > Beth > > Re: in hospital > > > Beth, Hi I am happy for you that got to come home for Halloween. > > Recent Activity > a.. 2New Members > b.. 16New Photos > c.. 23New Links > Visit Your Group > Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Beth, sharing updates are fine but do not worry about having to read the listserve as you have your plate full with your son. We do understand even though this listserve could become addicting as there is a variety of messages to choose from that one can relate. Prayers and thoughts your way, hope all continues to go well, wishing your son a good visit with the GI doc on Friday. Irma,20,DS/ASD > > Thanks, a. The rash went away, so it must have been viral or a med reaction. He is back at school, and doing much better, but he's very fatigued still.
